For example: all furniture items at one end, clothing separate, household, etc. Clothing - everything was $1. Everything else, we asked them to make us an offer. If we felt something was worth a certain amount or was a higher ticketed item... we would start the price then allow them to negotiate.<br /><br />Towards the end of the sale... we had plastic grocery bags and said anything you can fit into this bag is $5! Those went like wildfire! :) Hope this helps!For this journey we're on...https://www.blogger.com/profile/12030695376067815475noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3169338736792936301.post-83374341048809099352011-06-13T10:13:18.214-07:002011-06-13T10:13:18.214-07:00Hi Brantley,

We are adopting from South Africa. I have been doing photography as a fundraiser and we'll be doing a garage sale in a few weeks as well. A question for you - at your garage sale did you price things or have people pay by donation? We're trying to decide what a better option is! Thanks!

I know we didn't set it up as a business account, because its donation based.. you're not selling product or actually becoming a business. I'll have to go back and look. Anyone else who has done this... feel free to chime in. :)For this journey we're on...https://www.blogger.com/profile/12030695376067815475noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3169338736792936301.post-70174390134677516932011-06-11T11:29:40.557-07:002011-06-11T11:29:40.557-07:00Hi Brantley,

I saw your suggestion to create a Paypal account and I started this, but am not sure what to answer for half the questions!! Did you set it up just as an individual business account?AdoptaMixonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00411561310039568130noreply@blogger.com
